Parmese Restaurazionisti

The Restaurazionisti was a reactionary political faction in the Duchy of Parma that existed in the mid-19th century. The faction was founded by those who opposed political or social liberalization or reform in the duchy, favoring extreme conservatism and rightism. The party was entirely supportive of the absolute monarchy, and it opposed any attempts to limit its powers with a constitutional monarchy or with new laws. The party was the ruling party as of 1836, and it would ensure that Parma maintained the same government until it was annexed by Italy in 1859.
